Each of the program assignments will be given a due
date.† You will be given one week for
each assignment. These assignments are due at the end of the class.† You will always turn in the printed listing
of the program files (.cpp and .h files) and a diskette or CD that contains the
source programs.† An alternative to
turning in your program on diskette or CD is for you to e-mail your program(s)
to stanwebbstl@aol.com. If you do, be
sure that all source files are sent.†
Also, send files as attachments rather than sending your programs as
part of the message text.† The best way
to ensure that happens is to zip the files together before sending the zipped
file as an attachment.† The program
listings should still be turned in during class.

†

Some assignments may require additional material such as an
output file, report listing, etc., but the statement of the assignment will
describe that.† On the diskette or CD,
please have a folder labeled Assignment 1 (or whatever number is
appropriate).† Inside this folder place
all of the items associated with the assignment.† This will include the source program, any
input and output files, etc.† You do not
need to include the project workspace files since I will compile your source
program when I grade the assignment.† Failure
to follow this procedure will cost you points.†

Each program assignment is worth 50 points.† If an assignment is late, 10% (5 points) will
be deducted for each week it is late.† If
you are unable to complete an assignment on time, there will be a "grace
period" in which you can complete the program and only lose 5% (2-1/2
points).† You can e-mail a program to me
and if I receive it by the Sunday morning following the due date, you will be
assessed this reduced deduction.† In that
case, I will print the program listing.

There will be two or three extra credit programs available
during the semester that will be worth between 10 and 20 points each.† For each week an extra credit program is
late, 20% of its value will be deducted.†
Extra credit points cannot exceed 10% of the total program points.

Assistance with
the Programs

There are several methods available for you to get help with
the programs.† I will generally be in the
classroom by 4:30 p.m. on the
evening of our scheduled classes.† I am
also available via e-mail to answer questions.†
You should send me your program files when you ask me a question via
e-mail.† I have often made corrections to
a studentís programs noting the changes with comments before returning the
marked up program.† You may also take
advantage of tutoring provided by the university.† An instructor(s) is available for tutoring on
Sunday afternoons between 2p.m. and 4p.m.
in Room 103 at Sverdrup Hall.† If you still feel you need additional
assistance, please see me.
